    THE VERDICT

    After the letdown of Madden 25 last year, Madden 15 feels like a mostly fresh start for the series. The increased emphasis on defensive play, a great new play-calling system, and the return of long-time favorites makes this year’s Madden one of the best in recent memory, even if it could still use work in regards to its stale commentary and longstanding bugs. As a lifelong Madden and football fan, I’m impressed. This year’s game is both exciting and reassuring that EA Sports isn’t wasting opportunities to improve the series.

    8.7=GREAT

    Madden NFL 15’s defense revamp goes a long way toward reviving the excitement of football.

    +Defense matters
    +Great graphics
    +Improved play calling
    – Physics bugs
    – Mediocre commentary

    He probably got cut after being put through intensive training until the last possible day. Or am I thinking of something else?

    I think I may get it just because of the cover. Plus I haven't played a football game since November.

    It seems like every Madden gets high scores but the fans don't like the games very much.

    I picked this game up yesterday. Although it's pretty fun to play I would like to know where the team up mode is? I'm surprised EA didn't put this mode in as they put it in all there other sports games. Once NHL 15 comes out though I probably wont touch this one much.
